interesting - do you have a good example of a non-trivial web app that uses swift wasm?

isn't this just because Dart is way newer than those? it's from the 2010s. it's really modern in comparison (same generation as Kotlin swift and typescript)

true - though I don't think that's inherent, more just the mentality of one who might pursue this.

in my experience wasm on web, though it works, has too slow a first page load time for slow connections.

jeez so many ways to do things - react native flutter ionic and now swift. it seems dart + flutter still is the only way to do all targets (cli/web/iOS/android/desktop) though. react native being very close (albeit needs

lobste.rs does it right. literally only tech. people make excuses but lobsters doesn't have that problem. it's only this way because it's moderated to be that way.

how long would it take someone to reimplement DynamoDB's APIs? they're trivial. that was never the hard part.... I'll be impressed when a big service like Google Photos can run 100% with LLM Oncall without paging anyone or an

correct - h100 can do like 100 tokens per second on a gpt4 like model, but you'd need to account for regular fine-tuning to accurately compare to a person, hence 4 or so. of course the whole comparison is inane since computers and huma

human beings are estimated to use roughly 50 to 100W when idle (up to maybe 1000-2000W when exerting ourselves physically), and I think it's fair to say we're generally intelligent. Something is fundamentally missing with LLMs w.r

I'm surprised this is a thing. with the advances in STT I want the other extreme - a smaller and smaller device that leverages better voice control - super efficient inferencing chip on board and low power mic that's worn on your

things are changing too quickly for it to be worth it yet. eventually LLMs won't really increase in capability or resources anymore, and at that point, if the hardware itself isn't becoming more optimized for LLM workloads, you&#x

you don't need to believe me. I use it daily. don't know why you're so defensive lol - it's our own opinion. fyi I didn't have to do anything for this to work (clipboard laptop to phone)

tail scale drop is much more complicated than literally copying and pasting on iDevice. that's literally all you do, no setup, nothing and this is just one example for one type of action. https://tailscale.com/kb/1

Yes, if the botany app shares sensitive information like their exact location and possibly home/workplace then the app is to blame if it allows children and even adults to publish such information without explicit share-with-world opt

I think you might find it not so arbitrary that kids should watch 6 men “use” a young man or girl; or even 3 grannies using a young boy as a toy. Is it really arbitrary?

what's the difference between porn and any arbitrary category here? even with porn isn't it just arbitrary that porn has been defined as "adult?" presumably Texas could just legislate that all apps are "adult"
